As a kid I was a big Bruce Lee fan (still am actually).
One of the things that stuck to me was he was always in a perpetual state of training. Today ofcourse we all know that there is such a thing as overdoing it but there may be merit to certain thoughts like "take the stairs instead of the elevator" or "do a few crunches while watching TV". Little efforts that ultimately add up.
Not all of us can dedicate a big chunk of their time improving our cycling persona but I was wondering if any of you had little tidbits that you do when you're not out cycling (ie at work, going out etc).
As for me, I have gotten in the habit of wearing leg weights at work. They are not exceptionally heavy but it does give me that "little" extra workout during an otherwise fat gathering work day.

Usually I find for the non-drugged cyclist we need to spend as much time as possible recovering from a difficult effort. Thus I do as much as I can to relax when not cycling; of course, I do not take this to the extreme of just sitting on the couch all day long!
